Women born between 6 April 1950 and 5 April 1953 were affected by State Pension age equalisation under the Pensions Act 1995. The Pensions Act 2011 accelerated the equalisation of State Pension age, and included transitional arrangements limiting State Pension age delays, affecting women born between 6 April 1953 and 5 December 1953. It also brought forward the increase in State Pension age from 65 to 66 which affected women born between 6 December 1953 and 5 April 1960.<\/p>

We will spend around £55 billion this year (2019/20) on benefits to support disabled people and people with health conditions. This is around 2.5 per cent of GDP, and over 6 per cent of government spending, and as a share of GDP, the UK\u2019s public spending is second highest in the G7 [OECD 2015 data].<\/p> <\/p> The new State Pension is actually more generous for many women, who often did less well in the past. Women who reached State Pension age in 2016 are estimated to receive more State Pension on average over their lifetime than women ever have before. By 2030, over 3 million women stand to gain an average of £550 more per year as a result of the recent reforms.<\/p> <\/p> There are now 5 million women aged 50 and over in the workforce compared to 4.2 million five years ago. This is a record high.<\/p> <\/p> This Government is committed to improving the outlook for older workers, including women, affected by increases in the State Pension age, and removing the barriers they may face. We have removed the default retirement age, meaning most people can choose when to retire, and extended the right to flexible working.<\/p> <\/p> To support people with their future planning, DWP launched an online web page in February this year which brings together money, job and health elements of the mid-life MOT: https://www.yourpension.gov.uk/mid-life-mot/<\/a><\/p> <\/p>
